it wasnt lucky. she won. her opponent wasn't injured. petrova even said she was tough.

Correct, you judge on a track record...Orange Bowl, Herr, seeing her hit vs Evert and the pros who Evert has visit at Boca, beating the 81st player, playing tough vs # 10, the opinions of Lansdorp and others who have watched her play.

That is not luck, it is a track record of success.

Why do we let BB contaminate every thread and every post. No matter what is the thread about, he always brings his son into it and sucks all life out of a thread.

How did we get from "congrats to Madison Keys" to having another useless and silly argument about the same stupid subject.

True, I have no idea how a thread about the first American 14 year old to beat a top 100 player in a long time somehow gets bogged down in nonsense.

Anyway, best of luck to Madison.

Sadly, you are so correct. There are many people on this board that have significant, very productive inputs. Many of those people have noticeably disappeared.

Regrets

Ouch.... man, that one hurt. If only "GENIUS" were spelled correctly, I might take it as an intelligent thought. And legos doesn't have an apostrophe, they don't own anything.

Just messing with you ,on a the real side Madison is a nice player and overall probably our best hope in the USA ,she has had a great upbringing or she just a solid person when i talked to her she was very polite something you don't see to often in juniors today , she's gonna have "size" it looks like and when i watched her she seems to have a nice work ethic and fight on the court ,keep your eye on her i think she will do well with the right management.

Tom C · 06-26-2009, 01:56 PM

Any word on Madison? She withdrew from the jr. Wimbledon tournament b/c of injury.

TennisCoachFLA · 06-26-2009, 06:58 PM

I heard she is having a lot of hip pain associated with a growth spurt. They want her to take some time to get through it.

She is already 5'10" at 14.....wonder how tall she will end up.

firstserve · 07-02-2009, 02:28 PM

I have seen Keys play and yes she has decent ground strokes and at this age has been able to win from sheer power. But there is only one way to beat Keys, it is to drop shot, drop shot, and drop shot. She cannot move up and back. The most important shot to have in girl's tennis is the drop shot since most girls have extreme difficulty moving up and back and to add to their lack of mobility most girls do not have a solid net game so even if they do reach the ball it is easy to flip the ball right over their backhand shoulder.

Brad is a real piece of work. Here he talks about Madison Keys. In another thread he's discussing rankings and Kosakowski (from the poor city of Downey).

So just for you Brad "a true man of genius"

Madison Keys wont do much, she isnt that great. Melanie Oudin only female American doing anything under 25. Coco Vandweghe also a stiff.

jmdlaw · 04-29-2010, 10:45 AM

I've seen her play. She's pretty good.

chalkflewup · 04-29-2010, 12:45 PM

The girl can play and more importantly, she's a great kid.

Very true...and I am not sure what Oudin has to do with her as there is like a 4 year age difference.

Sloane Stephens not bad
